What’s Builders Mutual’s top contractor claim?  Falls.  Don’t be another statistic!

Year after year, the #1 reported jobsite accident remains the same – falls.  So why don’t contractors pay more attention to fall hazards and the safety programs that can prevent injury or even death?  Often, they do not realize they are at risk.  Don’t be another statistic!  During class, you will hear true stories of how falls affect contractors’ businesses, employees, and their employees’ families.  You will learn to:

• Recognize fall hazards and reduce or avoid them completely
• Connect fall protection with productivity and profitability
• Effectively use guardrails and harnesses as fall protection methods
• Establish jobsite safety procedures for ladder and scaffold use
• Comply with OSHA standards to avoid costly fines
• Differentiate between general contractor and subcontractor responsibilities
